Lunch was shared with 2 best friends and this was not our first visit by far. Love the outside seating under the grapevines. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Service wasn't the best I have had there but it was a public holiday and not a lot of staff on but certainly could have been better as the prices... More

We arrived with no booking but the staff gave us a table by the open windows so we did not feel we missed much by not being outside. Our food took a while to come as it was really busy but the staff were lovely and deducted our glasses of wine off the bill because of the wait. However we... More

Visited for lunch on our second visit to the area and it did not disappoint. Great food and wine.

Girls weekend away in Napier. Had a wonderful lunch at the bistro. All staff were very friendly. Highly recommend the pork belly and strawberry carpaccio dessert. Certainly recommend you eat there.

Black Barn Restaurant......wow!! It is no wonder that they are recipients of the prestigious NZ Cuisine Award for Best Winery Restaurant! What a fantastic experience of culinary delight unsurpassed any where in a NZ vineyard! But the most amazing aspect of it all was that they catered to over 60 people to end our business conference in Napier. The co-ordination... More

we were a group of seven and were on a wine tour, We were looking forward to the lunch and I have to say that it was beautiful.
